Captious
<kap-shish>
irritable; crabby; contrary;
being objectionable and negative in attitude.
The captious woman became annoyed when the children came in the restaurant.
Memory trick:
You cap the conversation and shush us.
Used at work:
Don't be captious. Have a good attitude and a smile when you make a sale.
